    I accidentally hit some funny combo of keys, and now my taskbar shows no buttons. I have Quicklaunch and systray and Google toolbar down there, but the space for running applications is always empty. If I minimize a program, the only way to find it again is with Alt+Tab (or task manager).

    I tried unchecking "Group similar taskbar buttons" in the thread "XP Task Bar - Buttons for minimized programs disappear ", but no amount of fiddling with those settings worked.

    Is there a way to get the buttons back?
    Thanks a lot!
